I may have spoken too soon yesterday, lauding the freedom of the press in America, contrasting it with Venezuelan President Chavez’ takeover of the airwaves. I didn’t speak out of turn, however, when sharing a sincere appreciation for the power of YouTube.

Man, you gotta love YouTube just for the sheer empowerment it has the potential to give the disenfranchised.

A Venezuelan television station is the latest to use the video-sharing site to get around government and legal pressures.
